Israeli forces have intensified operations in the northern Gaza Strip, focusing on dismantling underground and above-ground terrorist infrastructure in areas such as Jabaliya, Beit Hanoun, and Beit Lahiya. Troops from the Northern Gaza Brigade, working with specialized units, have destroyed over four kilometers of tunnels reportedly used by Hamas for attacks. During these operations, soldiers discovered approximately ten mortar shells concealed inside a children's blanket within a residential building in Beit Hanoun. The military emphasized that these efforts are part of ongoing actions to protect Israel's security.
